Hi All,
I posted a while ago on the erratic behavior of my TSU7000 when I put it in the cradle/base. Lock ups, screen going blank while buttons work, screen going grey and full lockup. Disconnecting and re-seating the battery with a couple second pause would bring it back. And the battery would never hold a full charge (even with a extra capacity one). Didn't get replies save for a couple folks with the same problem.

However, I have found what was wrong and want to let everyone know.

On a hunch I checked the output voltage of the power supply for the base cradle and found that it was putting out 17.38 volts rather than the required 12 volts DC. I replaced the power supply and everything seems to be back to working fine. No more flashing blue lights (overcharge warning?) on the base/cradle either.

So, if your remotes not holding a charge peoperly, acting erratic especially when inserted into the cradle etc. try checking the voltage on the power supply. A very cheap and easy fix.

Hope this helps someone.

Peace,

Tam

Impressive skills. I wonder if this is the fix for even the common flashing blue light problem?

Any tips on how to replace the power supply (this is the one in the base station, right?) such as how to get at it, find a replacement part, and put it together. How about pics!

My base cradle stopped working (no blue lights, no charge), and indeed, my power supply is putting out 19v !

Will try this fix.
